builds

Step-by-step guide for a deployment of your 11ty blog using rsync, npm deploy scripts and optimization for an efficient workflow.

Until recently, I've been using GitHub Actions to trigger builds on my website, but this approach meant that builds for the site were only run once a day and that I couldn't schedule specific times for posts to go live. In February of this year, Netlify announced Scheduled Functions, and one of the use cases that I'd seen mentioned was scheduling builds.

Having a static site is great, but there could be times where you need to build your site on a schedule.
